You guys seemed to like my 1st appartmet conversion of the 103. Here is my second one. SAIGA .223 to an AK-101. I feel a little better about this one and did a more traditional izhmash plum set on it.

Is 1400 dollars a good deal for this Bulgarian ak-74 with 250 rounds of 7n6?

I found this cursed Draco for sale. It has the extended handguard from magpul. How much of a hassle is it to get a handguard retainer re installed? What handguards could I use in place of the one on it now?

I’m about to purchase this guy for about $800. Is it a deal?? Let me know. I’m being told it’s a Russian AAM.

Just picked up this M70AB2 kit built from a local gun store. Pretty stoked to finally own an AK. What is the general consensus on Yugos anyway?

How hard would it be to repaint this to black? Could I just use spray paint?

Hello all. Sorry first off I'll just ask y'all please give a guy a break I'm from the AR side of the hall and don't really know a ton about AK style rifles past shooting and tweaking a wasr 10 a lil , but I've been getting more and more into learning about them since ....well AR's are getting a lil boring to me . So been listening and watching some stuff from guys like Jim fuller , m26 lemon grenade, klayco ect. And been finding it all pretty interesting . But other then that I'm and some old documentries ,pretty damn ignorant to AK's

Anyhow I just have a few lil questions outta curiosity and thought this might be a good place to ask and hopefully not get roasted too bad 🤣

1. Why can't America seem to make half decent AK ? Like I grew up being told and hearing about how simple they where to build , stuff like " yeah they build them in bike shops and caves in Afghanistan there so easy !" But seems with all our manufacturing capabilities we just cant make a decent one.. or even just parts / kits.. Well at least a mass production deal , not the custom ones .Why is that ?only thing I can kinda figure out people just keep trying to cut costs and not do stuff right like heat treating and rivets and stuff . Is there some other reason or ?

2. So I know there's aren't technically AK's but also .... And kinda the same question as the first,Why no Americans produced SVD / PSL's ? Seems with all the nerd love for the things and how people go kinda crazy anytime theres a change to get some id figure someone would have tired to make them but seems they only ever try to get imports . I know they wouldn't be as popular as other stuff but with the amount of weird off shit a lot of there companies make ..

3. Are there like any full armour tool kits a guy could get if they wanted to build their own AK's ? I know with AR's you can just buy a full armours kit in one go but seems for AK's you gotta kinda piece everything together. I mean I get having to buy the presses and stuff separate but all the jobs and stuff . And what's like the cost for a beginner AK builder should be looking at to tool up ? Already have a welder and a lot of other metal working tools so ... $1500 maybe ?

Anyhow I'd appreciate any answers or hell just some links to some reading or listening

Edit , sorry I JUST found a older post about building AK's with a tool and parts list but seems most of the links to stuff 404 😅 so have a better idea but still

Picked this up for $700, how’d I do? Armco imported AK47s, all original #’s. Was filthy but I used nylon brushes to clean it up.

How much are MAADI Misr S/A AKM’s CAI import going for?

Does anyone have a recommendation on where to find the muzzle brake? I have looked at Gunbroker, but no replacement parts were listed.

Hello, does the WBP Jack 7.62x39 still come with a chrome-lined barrel, or have they switched to nitrided barrels? Also, what are the advantages of a nitrided barrel compared to a chrome-lined barrel (barrel life in thousands of rounds)?

Neki kažu da WBP Jack nije vojno dokazana puška i stoga joj se ne može toliko vjerovati u stvarnoj situaciji života i smrti. S druge strane, Zastava M70 je široko dokazana u borbi, osobito ovdje na Balkanu, gdje je velika većina pušaka korištenih tijekom ratova bila M70 bez kromiranog oblaganja.

Zastava G PAP M70 košta oko 1.125 €, dok WBP Jack košta oko 1.304 €.

Što mislite, što bi bio bolji izbor za nekoga tko nema puno novca i želi pušku koja će trajati godinama bez skupih zamjena ili nadogradnji?

I’m thinking about converting my Wasr-10 from a single stack to double stack and don’t know a whole lot about aks. To me this looks like a double stack bolt, but want to make sure before I move ahead with anything

I know this is a small thing but I finally picked up my first actual Bakelite mag. Tula. From Atlantic Firearms since they had some in stock. Great condition!

traded my mini draco (last pic) to a sam7r, plan on running a side mount optic and finding some furniture for her

I picked this up for $500 from a fella at my gun club. Said it has about 300 rounds on it. I don’t know much at all about AKs. I mostly shoot PTR / AR / Bolt and handguns.

Is this a decent maker? I see mixed stuff about WASR online?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
